Alcohol consumption refers to the ingestion of beverages containing ethanol, such as beer, wine, and distilled spirits. As a central nervous system depressant, it is widely consumed globally for its psychoactive effects, including euphoria, relaxation, and increased sociability. However, its use carries significant public health implications, ranging from acute intoxication to long-term health risks and dependency.
